Aftermovie Drupaljam :Open Up

Drupaljam is an annual event organized by the Dutch Drupal Association that focuses on the Drupal community. In 2024, they celebrated the 20th edition. Since 2013 POI Creatives are committed to supply this conference with state-of-the-art audiovisual content such as aftermovies, promo’s, inspirational openers, sponsorclips, logo sequenses and livestreams.

THE 2024 EDITION
Special guest this year was Dries Buytaert, coder of the first version of open-source CMS Drupal and still godfather of the international community. So it was obvious that Dries had to have a prominent role in this aftermovie. Despite of his rockstar status, Dries is the opposite of all that and very committed to this community. Willing to help everyone and to set the strategic guidelines for the product and tool everyone loves. The theme of the conference this year is Open Up; searching connections with other open-source digital platforms. That’s why there’s also a some quotes by Mathias Bolt Lesniak from TYPO3.

CREATIVE PROCESS
Most of my films have a journalistic approach. Even in aftermovies, where the main goal is to catch the atmosphere of the day, i’ll try to make a nice balance between information and entertainment. Soundtrack and visuals are just as important. When done well they compliment each other. The editing this year started with the search for good music. A piece that would have a large amount of ‘breaks’ to cut the quotes and visual sequenses inbetween. Luckily that track was found fast so the edit could be executed and be approved in only 2 days. Just before my holiday started 😉

PROFESSIONALISM
Drupal meetings can be found all aroud the world but the Dutch version is widely considered to be one of the best organised events. We are proud to be part of that team as an external supplier since 2013.
